being too warm during the day: well, this sucks, but this temperature makes sense because the sun is up, and the sun is making me warm. i am unhappy but logically i can deal with it for now.

being too warm at night: what if i kill everybody.

Trying to inflict psychic damage to a tumblr user is like trying to irradiate a cockroach, like it can be done, but the lethal dose is not safe for humans either

[gomezaddamsofficial]

Besides the point, but you could always try physical damage?

You’re right Gomez, bring me the flail

The whole "you're not valid/disabled unless you're diagnosed" is evil and it is killing people. A diagnosis does not make you disabled. Your disability makes you disabled.

used to think it terribly silly (and kinda funny) when fantasy or sci-fi stories would have people refer to major recent historical events as The Flood or The Incident or The Revolution, and im sure historians fucking hate that because it's not helpful or descriptive, but we sure do be calling it The Pandemic

Made chocolate chip cookies from my sourdough discard, since I had a lot. They are soft and fluffy, with a little bit of tang, I am enjoying them immensely.

Recipe under the cut!

14 tablespoons unsalted butter, slightly softened

100g granulated sugar

125g brown sugar

1 large egg

250g sourdough starter, unfed

1 1/4 tablespoon vanilla extract

1/4-1/2 teaspoon almond extract

260g all-purpose flour

7g salt

1 teaspoon baking soda (add a little for more floof)

1-2 cups large chocolate chips (to taste)

In a large bowl, combine the softened butter, sugars, and salt.

Add the egg to the mixture, stir until mixed.

Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts.

Stir in the sourdough starter and baking soda.

Stir in the flour until just mixed. It will seem a little goopy.

Mix in the chocolate chips. If it's still Very goopy, add a little more flour, but bear in mind it will firm up in the fridge.

Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (can go overnight if needed!)

Preheat the oven to 350°F while cookies are in the fridge.

Scoop 1 large ice cream scoop of dough and roll into ball. Can lightly flour your hands in order to make a smoother ball. Set on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Recipe should make 16 cookies; if you have more than that, your cookies are too small and idk what will happen. If you have less than that, your cookies are too big, which isn't a problem necessarily, but you'll need a longer cook time probably. You can test done-nes by sticking a chopstick in the middle to see if it comes out clean.

Bake 20-25 minutes, depends on your oven/location I guess. Mine takes 23 minutes.

Let them cool on the baking sheet for at least a few minutes after taking them out of the oven. They will get a little bit of a crisp on their crust if you do, and it's REALLY delicious. After 5-10 you can put them on a cooling rack if you want. 100% suggest eating one while it's still warm (not burning but warm).

Cookies are best eaten on the first day. Dough can be frozen or fridged if you want to just bake a few at a time. Thaw dough overnight before baking if you freeze it.

In case you want the recipe for the cookies I baked today, the current version is under the cut above!

Brian McFadden: Is Google Cooked? (via Daily Kos)

It had never occurred to me that bus upholstery fabric is something that an ordinary person can just buy, but I was watching a video that included a trip to a huge fabric store and they just had a whole section of it??!

Including the exact same one my city buses have!!

The fabric store in the video isn't even in the same country as me, but I sat on that very same pattern on the way to work yesterday!

[vashti-lives]

I love discovering really specific commercial textiles are also available for domestic use. Very jarring to discover, for example, that bowling alley carpet is something anybody can just buy.

[vinceaddams]

Even though I don't want any myself it's really nice to know that it's an option!

No, Word, I do not “want to rewrite this paragraph with copilot”. Similarly, I do not “want to hire a drunk chimp as a chauffeur”, so perhaps you can fuck off?
